Q

What kind of muscles are voluntary muscles and what kind of muscles are involuntary muscles

A

Voluntary muscles are striated

Involuntary muscles are unstriated and cardiac muscles

32
Q

How does the skeletal muscle move

A
  • The skeletal muscle attaches across a joint and attaches to the bones by means of a tendon
  • When the brain sends a message to a muscle contracts
  • Inside the muscle, filaments called Acton and myosin slide over one another
  • The result is that the muscle becomes shorter
  • As a muscle become shorter it pulls on its tendon which in turn moves the bone
